I am using google app engine. It has a much simpler database interface than SQLAlchemy, and also pushes you in the right directions to develop your app to be scalable, if that is important to you. I followed the directions for setting up a pyramid/pylons environment and had no trouble at all. My app also hooks into Box.net for storage of user files (in this case music). Deployment is also a breeze. The environment is restrictive -- which actually adds simplicity and tends (again) to enforce good practices to support scalability and minimization of resources. The framework pushed to think of a much better design for my app than probably would have otherwise taken place. So if you find things seeming to restrictive, don't give up right away but instead try to understand why the environment is set up the way it is. (Feel free to contact me as well, if you like)
I also have had success with Amazon EC2. However, the free version (as expected) supports very little bandwidth and is only meant for minimal users in a development environment. I understand the cost is much higher and the services provided are less than other providers of this sort such as Linode. -John On Tue, Oct 25, 2011 at 4:56 PM, Bruce Wade <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > What are the recommendations for deploying on a cloud.
